MY NEW BLOG


Oops, I did it again.  I have started a new blog – THE TAX PROFESSIONAL.

It will provide advice, information, and resources for tax professionals who prepare 1040s (and 1040As).

I also hope it will serve as a forum for the discussion of federal income tax and tax practice management topics and issues.

So now I have three blogs –

THE WANDERING TAX PRO – advice, information, and resources for the individual taxpayer,

THE NJ TAX PRACTICE BLOG – advice, information, and resources for New Jersey professionals (limited to state tax topics and issues), and

THE TAX PROFESSIONAL – advice, information, and resources for tax professionals who prepare federal individual income tax returns.
